    The Temptations

    Lyrics

    I can turn the gray sky bluer,
    And I can make it rain when ever I want it to.
    I can build a castle from a single grain of sand,
    I can make a ship sail, yeah on dry land.
    But my life is incomplete and I'm so blue 'cause
    I Can't Get Next To You.
    (I Can't Get Next To You, babe
    I Can't Get Next To You.)

    I can fly like a bird in the sky,
    And I can buy anything that money can buy.
    I can turn a river into a raging fire,
    I can live forever if I so desire.
    Unimportant are all these things I can do
    I Can't Get Next To You.
    (I Can't Get Next To You, babe
    I Can't Get Next To You.)

    I can turn back the hands of time,
    You better believe I can.
    I can take the season's change just by waving my hand.
    I can change anything from old to new.
    The things I want to do the most I'm unable to do.

    Unhappy am I with all the powers I possess.
    'Cause girl, you're the key to my happiness.
    And I, I, I, Can't Get Next To You,
    Girl, you're blowin' my mind.

    I Can't Get Next To You.
    Can't you see these tears I'm cryin'?
    I Can't Get Next To You.
    Girl, it's you that I need.

    I Can't Get Next To You.
    Can't you see these tears I'm cryin'?
    I Can't Get Next To You.
    Girl, it's you that I need.

    I Can't Get Next To You.
    Can't you see these tears I'm cryin'?
    I Can't Get Next To You.
